Oh, this is a wonderful find, thank you!

Not being stupid here, but: do you need to? I completely understand and support the anger, but what in-app purchases are you making and can’t you stop making them? You can switch to the free iCloud account (so they don’t get money) and download/delete your content so they don’t have access to it.

I think your data being used is the big one, but it leads down a big privacy hole; you’ll have to decide how far you want you take that.

My issue is the disparity of the pictures, with the bowtie picture having the duck’s entire neck almost completely in shadow, while the shadow is comparatively minimized on the necktie image. It’d be nice to see both options under both light and dark conditions.

If these are known common problems, shouldn’t Intel have accounted for them in their chip design?

I’m seconding Simon Tatham’s puzzle collection, Nonograms Katana, and Stardew Valley, all of which are in regular rotation and fill different niches in my soul.
